2. Educational Technology came a long way as a history
of three separate fields;
• Instructional Design- which focused on the theories
and principles in teaching by noted educators;
Instructional Media- which focused on the material
used to facilitate instruction;
• Instructional Computing- which focused on the use
of computers in instruction.

3. The increasing scope of Educational
Technology brings about the convergence of
these three fields as interrelated concepts.

4. TRADITIONAL MODEL
A very typical feature of traditional
methodology, as Broughton and his
colleagues claim, is the “teacher-
dominated interaction” (Broughton 22).
The teaching is deeply teacher-centered.

5. TRADITIONAL MODEL
The reason for this approach is explained
by the statement of Assist. Prof. Dr.
Abdullah Kuzu, who asserts that it is
based on the “traditional view of
education, where teachers serve as the
source of knowledge while learners serve
as passive receivers” (Kuzu 36).

6. TRADITIONAL MODEL
This idea corresponds to the simile of Jim
Scrivener, who claims that “traditional teaching
[is imagined to work as] ‘jug and mug’ – the
knowledge being poured from one receptacle
into an empty one.” This widespread attitude is
based on a precondition that “being in a class in
the presence of a teacher and ‘listening
attentively’ is [...] enough to ensure that
learning will take place” (Scrivener 17).

7. TRADITIONAL MODEL
The primary skills, such as reading, writing,
listening and speaking, are generally taught at an
insufficient level. Nevertheless, as Scrivener says,
this method, with all its potential disadvantages,
has been used very often in schools worldwide,
“and is still the predominant classroom method
in some cultures” (Scrivener 16, 38).

8. MODERN MODEL
Unlike traditional methodology, modern
methodology is much more student-centered.
According to Jim Scrivener, the teacher’s main
role is to “help learning to happen,” which
includes “involving” students in what is going on
“by enabling them to work at their own speed,
by not giving long explanations, by encouraging
them to participate, talk, interact, do things,
etc.” (Scrivener 18, 19).

9. MODERN MODEL
The teacher is here not to explain but to
encourage and help students to explore,
try out, make learning interesting, etc.
Though being essential, the aim of learning
according to modern methodology is still
discussed, and there is a variety of possible
aims.

10. MODERN MODEL
The main skills are listening, speaking, reading,
and writing. They can be classified into two
groups: receptive (listening and reading) and
productive (speaking and writing). These skills
consist of sub-skills; for example, reading
includes skimming (reading for gist), scanning
(reading for specific information), intensive
reading, and extensive reading.

11. MODERN MODEL
The tasks should improve skills, not test
memory. According to Jim Scrivener, with
receptive skills it is always better to assign one
task, let the students accomplish it, have
feedback, and then assign another task, let the
students read or listen to the text again, have
feedback, etc.

12. MODERN MODEL
Scrivener also points out that the tasks should be
graded from the easiest to the most difficult, or,
in other words, from the most general to the
most detailed, and the students must know what
the assignments are before the listening or
reading itself is done.

13. OPINIONS ABOUT TRADITIONAL METHODOLOGY
• By far the most often recurring term is memorizing; it
is referred to by twelve respondents.
• Five people claim that the priority is an encyclopedic
knowledge as opposed to skills, and three people 31
point at the priority of performance.
• According to three, error is considered to be
shameful..

14. OPINIONS ABOUT TRADITIONAL METHODOLOGY
• Two people claim that traditional teaching makes
learners passive; one person states that the reason for
the passiveness is the popular attitude that curiosity is
bad.
• As four respondents state, pupils are approached as
empty books – the teacher has to create the content.
One person declares that the teacher gets feedback
from the pupils in the form of their homework or
through oral examination.

15. OPINIONS ABOUT TRADITIONAL METHODOLOGY
• Three people refer to marks – in the Czech Republic
one to five (best to worse) – as very important in
traditional methodology.
• One person believes that traditional methodology is a
standard at Czech schools; one person considers
traditional teaching to be safe, evidently because it is
a standard and nobody can object to using it.

16. OPINIONS ABOUT TRADITIONAL METHODOLOGY
• One answer brings up the idea of a 45 minute lesson
being the basic unit of this teaching, while another
person points out the permanent lack of time.
• In the opinion of two people, limited communication
is connected to traditional methodology; one person
evaluates traditional teaching as tedious; and three
people claim it is unattractive for our youngsters.

17. OPINIONS ABOUT MODERN METHODOLOGY
• Now I evaluate the data on modern methodology.
• Concerning modern methodology, nine people agree
that it is student-centered.
• One person describes the role of the teacher as being
the organiser of the learning process.
• The same person states that the teacher brings
materials for the learners to find problems included in
them and guides pupils or helps them to find the
solutions.

18. OPINIONS ABOUT MODERN METHODOLOGY
• Seven respondents highlight the importance of the
positive teacher-student relationship and teacher-
parent relationship. Two people underline the positive
student-school and teacher-school relationship.
• Eight people claim that modern methodology is very
motivating for the pupils.

19. OPINIONS ABOUT MODERN METHODOLOGY
• One person points 32 out theoretical knowledge as
well as practical skills are taught and another person
highlights the vital role of feedback.
• Ten people refer to developing independent creative
thinking as a vital issue in modern methodology and
ten respondents claim that involving learners in the
lesson helps them remember the subject matter.
• One of the most popular methods is discussion which
is mentioned by six people.

20. OPINIONS ABOUT MODERN METHODOLOGY
• Four respondents point out the variety of methods
and two highlight that the methods are multisensual,
they employ more than one sense.
• As opposed to traditional methodology, modern
methodology uses a great deal of pair work and
individual work, as one person points out.
• The use of visual aids and information technology
such as computers, the internet etc. occurred in four
answers. Three teachers consider curiosity to be good
for modern methodology.

21. OPINIONS ABOUT MODERN METHODOLOGY
• Three people draw attention to the ability to know where to
look for information and to be able to process and use the
information.
• One person claims that making an error is acceptable as far as
the learner can learn from it. The importance of
communication is underlined by four respondents.
• Two people match modern methodology with positive verbal
evaluation and praising pupils’ effort and results.

22. OPINIONS ABOUT MODERN METHODOLOGY
• Each issue from the following list is mentioned by only one
person among the respondents: observing the rules; the basic
unit is a day or a week as opposed to a 45 minute lesson, and a
disadvantage: children sometimes do not respect others.
• One respondent adds that modern methodology is not used
much here in the Czech Republic and another one states that
this limited usage of modern methodology is caused by
observing the traditions in the Czech Republic, such as the
following: the encyclopaedic knowledge is preferred to the
skills, students are used to passive learning and in the course of
time this passiveness becomes a habit, etc.

23. The Respondents’ Preferences
12.5% of the teachers state that they prefer
traditional methodology, 25% of them claim to
use both, and 62.5% believe that they are using
modern methodology.
